Here's my group shot picture with some better lighting (even if the sun is unhelpfully low this time of year):

Plus a follow up to hopefully catch the metallic skin markings:

Well done everyone, and for Uprising for organising. For those who fail... you'll be handed over to the Death Watch to meet your fate :laugh.:

:thumbsup:

Gutted that I couldnt finish my vow. It was a joy to paint the classic Eldar minis, it was like I was back in 1991 again. :wub: but depressions a bitch.

 

Good work and well done to everyone else, may 2018 bring us many more painting comps. :)

I have depression too, so I can relate. If you're able, there was an extension, so depending on how much you still had to do you might still be able to complete your vow. If not, this too shall pass, and I hope you're able to get back to a place where you can enjoy painting toy soldiers again soon.

Glad to see many managed to fulfill their vows. 

I personally failed miserably... :ermm:

due to sickness and some (much) less acceptable reasons (making terrain, rather building new models than painting), I haven't put any paint on a model in those last few months. 

The only positive is that these are still the next ones in the painting que for me.

Still glad I joined and will give it another try in the future.

Best shot Ive managed tonight.   Thanks for the impetus to get some tau models painted Uprising-- I'm gonna see how much of my remaining tau I can get painted up by codex release and year's end now!

I think I am going to bow out.  I won't be able to meet the extended deadline with something that I am happy with, and I am having a hard time getting inspired to paint nids.. I keep picking up different models every time i sit down to paint.  

 

Again, thank you for running the event Uprising!  And congratulations to those who completed your vows, all the models posted look awesome!  I just can't put something I half-heartedly painted in with all the hard work people have put into their models.

While I did give extra time to complete your vow, the time to close this event is nearing. If you do not have your group shots finish(or finishing up the last detail on your units), please get them in by the 1-13-2017.  Badges and winners will be revealed on 1-14-2017. 

 

At the end of the day, I just want painted models.  So let celebrate the hard work everyone has done for the event.

Finished the last of what I could today, I could go on forever with the smaller details but it'll work. My pics will be in tomorrow night, on the 13th.

 Well, I completed my vow! Here are the final pics of everyone, with a final group shot at the end. I'm sure I've posted plenty of W.I.P. pics of every unit, but if I missed something I will add it to this post on demand.

This was a pretty large vow, so I'm glad I was able to finish it afterall.

Hello everyone

It is time to reveal the winners. In truth anyone who painted a single model is a winner, but for those who did not complete their vows here is your badge:

Here is your badge:

Best paint was an extremely hard one to choose. So many great vows, and oddly enough it came down to two Dark Eldar Vows. But at the end of the day best painted goes to:

Calyptra with his master and pets (aka Haemonculus Kabal)

Here is your badge:

Best in race is next. Stay tune.

Well after an hour and two crashes best in race is completed. Congrats to everyone, and if I miss something please let me know.

Thoughts: I am happy my first event went decently well. A lot of change has occurred in my life but seeing people get models painted is not one of these. I thank everyone for joining(vow completed or not). I can not wait to see everyone and new comers in the next xeno event.

Everyone give Warriorfish a big thank you for the badges and the help during the event.

Congratulations to the winners, and everyone who completed their vows! :biggrin.: This has been the motivation I needed to get my DE going properly, so I should be getting them ready for small games later this year :thumbsup: Last but not least thanks to Uprising for running the B&C's first ever xenos event - you've all made history :wink:
